Today, we’re thankful for the many ways the people of Forest Park work, serve, lead, build, teach, create, care for others, and faithfully show up each day. 🤍

Whether your work happens in an office, a classroom, a hospital, a job site, your home, or somewhere entirely different—what you do matters.

At Forest Park, we believe in putting Jesus First—and that doesn’t stop when we walk out the church doors. It shapes the way we work, the way we lead, the way we serve, and the way we love the people God has placed around us.

Scripture reminds us that even our ordinary, everyday work can be an act of worship:

“Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord…” — Colossians 3:23

So today, enjoy some well-earned rest. And as you step back into your week, may we be people who put Jesus First in our homes, our workplaces, our communities, and in everything we do.

Happy Labor Day, Forest Park!

Make plans. Bring someone with you. Come expectant.

We’ll see you tomorrow, Forest Park! 🙌

At Forest Park, we believe prayer isn’t simply something we do—it’s a priority.

Wednesday night was such a sweet, sweet time with the Lord and our church family as we gathered for the Route 66 Prayer Tour.

Together, we worshiped. We prayed. We sought the Lord—for our own hearts, our church, our community, our state, and beyond.

And while the prayer night may be over, the praying doesn’t stop here. Let’s keep seeking the Lord together. Keep praying for your family, your neighbors, our church, our community, and for God to move in ways only He can.

May we be a church family that continually turns to Him—praying with faith, praying with hope, and praying for one another. What a gift it is to seek the Lord together. 🤍🙏

Don’t underestimate this generation. 🔥

Last night, some of the FP Students gathered for a night of worship—and what a gift it was to watch students come together, lift their voices, and seek Jesus.

There’s a hunger for the Lord in the next generation. There’s a desire to know Him, worship Him, and follow Him. You can hear it in the testimonies they share, in the conversations around the table and the way they treat their peers.

And we’re praying that hunger only grows. 🙌

Jesus, keep drawing this generation closer to You.
